Rebuilding All Your Movable Type Blogs In One Go

| 4 Comments | No TrackBacks |
Nothing is more tedious in Movable Type than to have to manually rebuild all the blogs in your installation one by one after you have modified some crucial system-level template module that is used everywhere.  It is not fun if you have a few dozen blogs, and it gets positively annoying if you have more than a hundred, something that is not uncommon on an intranet or with an MT-powered blogging service.
Nick from the awesome MTJ recently posted an article about this plugin: QuickRebuild.  It is totally and utterly great, and I'm not saying this because this plugin saved me several hours of tedious clicking today (well, actually I am).

Basically the plugin adds an extra 'rebuild' icon to your menu bar that gives you the option to rebuild all your blogs in one go (or just a subselection of them).  You can download it here.

Oh, and the documentation is lying: it does work with MT5, which makes it even better.

Hi, Maarten

I'm Nick of Tokyo, Japan.

Thank you for introducing my blog's article and my friend's awesome plugin.
It's an really honor for me.

I'd like to thank you too, 'cause I get a lot of informations and tips from you and your website everyday. You have really marvelous techniques!

I'm happy we would exchange our information about Movable Type and make it hot more and more!

Point to note. The plugin builds only entries; it does not rebuild pages.

It's going to be finish of mine day, however before finish I am reading this wonderful piece of writing to improve my knowledge.

Heya! I realize this is kind of off-topic however I
needed to ask. Does running a well-established website like yours
require a massive amount work? I'm completely new to writing a blog but I do write in my journal everyday. I'd like to start a
blog so I can easily share my personal experience and views online.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Thankyou!
